Thanks! Have a wonderful weekend 😎🤙

I did not know, it costs 100€ to apply. Does anyone have a coupon code?

Hi, the question is in the title :)

For a person with little ship background and coming from finance. Even though I have military training, climbed some mountains, none of those relates to the actual work... Is the competition so big such a person has practically zero chance o.r.. well, what do you think?

Notice this all has to do with his time with Sea Shepherd and Whale Wars TV show.

Discussion about it between his lawer and the CEO of CPWF.

Great to see Sea Shepherd supporting this cause, i hope they can do more than just talk. Seems unclear what they have planned to stop it.. great to see them there and doing something at least.

NUUK, GREENLAND - JULY 21, 2024 - On the morning of Sunday, July 21st, Captain Paul Watson, co-founder of marine conservation Greenpeace, founder of Sea Shepherd and the Captain Paul Watson Foundation (CPWF), was arrested upon arrival in Nuuk, Greenland.

“We were here, and arrested Paul due to an international arrest order from Japan”, stated the leader of the Danish federal police boarding party at the site of the arrest. The crew were given no further information.

The arrest is believed to be related to a former Red Notice issued for Captain Watson’s previous anti-whaling interventions in the Antarctic region. Japan’s Antarctic research whaling program JARPA was declared illegal by the International Court of Justice in 2014.

“We’re completely shocked, as the Red Notice had disappeared a few months ago. We were surprised because it could mean that it had been erased or made confidential. We understand now that Japan made it confidential to lure us into a false sense of security. We implore the Danish government to release Captain Watson and not entertain this politically-motivated request”, stated Locky MacLean, Ship Operation’s Director for CPWF.

Operating in breach of the IC ruling for several years, Japan eventually ceased Antarctic high-seas whaling in 2016, and now only hunts whales within its territorial waters. CPWF believes Japan plans to resume high-seas whaling in the Southern Ocean and North Pacific as early as 2025, and the reactivation of the Red Notice against Captain Watson is politically motivated and coincides with the launch of a newly-built factory whale processing vessel.

In Nuuk, over a dozen Danish police and SWAT team members boarded the MY John Paul DeJoria as soon as it made port. After a handcuffed Captain Watson was led off of the ship, he was taken to the local police station. The crew and Foundation have no means of contacting him and have had no further news. At the time of writing, Watson remains in custody and it is unknown whether Denmark will allow Mr. Watson to be extradited to Japan.

Both in Iceland, and the Faroe Islands, Puffins and many other seabirds are massacred in droves. Remind me how Iceland is an ‘environmentally conscious’ country?
